Gotta credit Romo on this one.

Broken ribs, down by 10, you know pressure is coming on every play. Seriously tough stuff to stand in there and make one good throw after another. If this were week 17 instead of week 2 and if making the playoffs was on the line, we'd be talking about an epic performance.

I won't go so far as to say this was an epic performance, but it was damn good stuff.

That it was. It was a single fractured rib and a punctured lung, but still, quite gutsy!

He is capable of this type of a performance every single week though, which makes games like Week 1 all that more terrible to witness. Hopefully we get more of this and less of the fumbling, blind-throwing, turd of a QB-performance we saw against NY in the 4th quarter.

Given the injuries, we simply must have it to win. With Miles on the shelf now and still no guarantee that Dez is back, he might not even be enough as you still have to have capable receivers that can get separation. Holley showed me a lot (as he did in the preseason for that matter) so he and Ogletree might have to be enough for a while.

Then there is our starting C, RB, CB(s), TE (though he should be fine), among others. We aren't exactly the Chiefs here, but if this keeps up we won't be far from it.

Regardless, as always, Go Cowboys!
